Dental Surgical Instrument Autoclave Box 12″ | Stainless Steel Sterilization Cassette
A clean, organized tray is the base of every safe sterilization routine. The MediTek 12″ Dental Surgical Instrument Autoclave Box is a stainless steel sterilization cassette that holds your instruments through cleaning, autoclaving, and storage. You load it once, lock it, and move the full set through the cycle without touching each instrument again. It is built for dentists, oral surgeons, and clinic teams who want a reliable autoclavable instrument box.
Key Features of the 12″ Dental Sterilization Cassette
Medical-Grade Stainless Steel Body
Stainless steel resists rust and handles repeated steam cycles. The polished finish wipes clean easily and gives debris very little to hold on to, which keeps this dental stainless steel sterilization box easy to maintain.
Secure Locking Mechanism
The lock keeps the lid shut while you carry, wash, and sterilize the tray, so instruments stay inside and in place.
Transparent Lid
You can see what is inside without opening the box. This makes it quick to pick the right set for an implant case, an extraction, or a minor surgical procedure.
Dividers and Non-Slip Handle
Dividers keep instruments apart so tips do not knock together. The ergonomic, non-slip handle gives you a firm grip when the tray is wet or warm.

Why Use an Instrument Sterilization Box Instead of Loose Instruments?
Handling sharp, used instruments one by one raises the risk of cuts and needle sticks. A sterilization box lets your team move the whole set together. It also brings a few other gains:
- Less handling: Fewer touches between the chairside and the autoclave
- Protected tips: Dividers stop delicate working ends from bending or dulling
- Faster setup: A ready tray means less time arranging before each patient
- Consistent sets: The same instruments go back in the same place every cycle
What Fits in a 12 Inch Autoclave Box?
At 12″ × 6″ × 2.5″, the tray is long enough for common instruments such as extraction forceps, elevators, periotomes, surgical scissors, mirrors, and explorers. The exact count depends on instrument size and how you arrange the dividers, so measure your longest instrument before you order. Anything over about 11 inches will not lie flat inside.

How to Use the Autoclave Box Step by Step
- Clean first. Wash instruments by hand with a brush, or use an ultrasonic cleaner or washer. Rinse and dry them fully.
- Inspect. Check for debris, damage, or loose joints.
- Load the tray. Place instruments in the dividers with hinged tools open.
- Close and lock. Make sure the lid sits flat and the lock clicks shut.
- Wrap or pouch. The CDC advises that cleaned instruments be wrapped, packaged, or placed in a container system before sterilizing. Wrapping also keeps the set sterile after the cycle.
- Run the cycle. Use the time and temperature that your sterilizer maker recommends.
- Dry and store. Let the load dry fully and keep it sealed until you need it.
Typical Autoclave Settings
For wrapped instruments, CDC cycle tables list a minimum of 4 minutes at 132°C (270°F) in a prevacuum sterilizer, or 30 minutes at 121°C (250°F) in a gravity displacement unit. Always follow your own sterilizer’s manual, and run spore tests on a regular schedule to confirm the cycle works.
Care Tips for a Longer Tray Life
- Rinse the tray after each cycle to clear mineral spots
- Dry it fully before storing
- Avoid steel wool and harsh chlorine cleaners, which can pit stainless steel
- Replace the tray if the lock, lid, or hinges stop closing properly
Who Is This Autoclave Tray For?
- Dental clinics: Daily sterilization of examination and restorative sets
- Oral surgeons: Organized trays for extractions and bone work
- Implant practices: Clean transport of kit components
- Surgical and ENT teams: A compact tray for small instrument sets
